The Idlewild Trust has announced that the next closing date for applications to its grant making programme is the 6th September 2018.

The Idlewild Trust is a grant making trust that supports charities concerned with improving opportunities for young professionals working in the arts, particularly at an early stage in their careers; and supporting the conservation of important works of art and objects that are being lost through the lack of funds to look after these works.

The Trust awards around £120,000 each year in grants and makes grants of up to £5,000.
